If having a great boxing mind translates into a good trainer is more of a question. If that transalates into knowing someone's strengths & limitations & what you can add or not add to ones arsenal is more of a question.
This is one of the reasons I think Ben Davison is a tremendous trainer. I think the x's & o's of boxing can be learned by almost anyone with the desire to put in time. Look at all these zero knowledge coming in dad trainers that led their sons to amatuer success &/or pro boxing.
But seeing a boxers natural attributes, strengths & weaknesses & knowing what you can build on & what you can't is the art of training a boxer. Seeing his opps natural attributes, strengths & weakness & knowing what you can exploit & what you can't is the art of training a boxer. Very few guys are at that level.
I've heard enough to see Malik is a great thinker of boxing, but if hes got the ability to share that knowledge & do so correctly wasn't answered based on his limited time with a past prime Deontay.
As far as Ben Davison I don’t know how much is him and how much is Lee Wiley doing film study of old school fighters. I would tend to give the latter more of the credit, but they do seem to have a system in place that is working well at the moment.
